It is important to review the progress you are making on your goals. In the activity “Make Goals,” you read an example of Kobi making a goal to turn his schoolwork in on time. Read and discuss the steps Kobi has taken to complete his goal. Do you think he needs to keep the same goal or make a new one?

1. Discover: What do you need to work on? What do you need to improve or change?

   “I need to turn all my schoolwork in on time.”

2. Plan: How will you make this change? What steps do you need to take?

   “I will write a list of my schoolwork and due dates. I will complete each assignment by the due date.”

3. Act: How does faith in Jesus Christ help you reach your goal? Do you need more help?

   “I did not finish some schoolwork by the due dates. I prayed to know what to do. The Spirit gave me the idea to tell one of my parents every night what schoolwork I completed.”

4. Reflect: What did you learn? Do you need to make a new goal or keep this goal?

   “Telling one of my parents what I completed each day is helping me get more done. I will continue to work and talk with them.”

Kobi has done really well turning his schoolwork in on time. He has made a lot of progress. However, he has been struggling with his mathematics class. He wants to make a new goal to help him do better in mathematics. His goal is below:

• Goal: “I want to get help with mathematics when I do not understand something.”

Talk about the steps Kobi could take to accomplish his goal. For example, who can he ask for help? How can he get the help he needs?
